The presentation will be given by Anthony Czarnecki, Trustee of Westchester Society and former president of Peekskill’s Lincoln Society. A Clandestine Trip to the US Military Academy in the Middle of the Civil War (June 1862).
Lincoln was inaugurated in 1861. It has now been 150 years since Lincoln's visit to West Point.
